Skodsborg is a small coastal town located on the Øresund coast, just 12 miles from Copenhagen and home to unique architecture, including the old Skodsborg Badesanatorium and listed Skodsborg Station, designed by Heinrich Wenck. Add sprawling woodlands and beautiful parks into the mix and Skodsborg is the perfect location to stimulate all of your senses.
If you love the great outdoors and an active holiday, staying in Skodsborg is highly recommended. Relax in the sublime Struckmannpark, a rare combination of woodland and beach – ideal for picnics and lazy days on the sand. There’s also the Jægersborg Hegn, an area of protected countryside and woodland behind the town, which forms the northern part of Copenhagen’s Dyrehaven.
Skodsborg was originally a small fishing port that expanded in the 19th century into a popular holiday destination for wealthy Copenhageners. The exclusive atmosphere still lingers on, thanks to a number of elegant and historic buildings, including Skodsborg Badesanatorium dating from1898, Frederik VII's castle and the old Skodsborg Søbad. The magnificent white buildings have given Skodsborg the nickname ‘white town’.
The beautiful buildings have been carefully restored, and now provide luxurious facilities in fantastic surroundings. If you really want to spoil yourself, you should consider a weekend break in Skodsborg with a visit to the Skodsborg Spa, perhaps followed by gourmet dining with sea view at The Restaurant by Kroun.
If you’re bringing your family to Skodsborg, there’s plenty to keep them all entertained, including Skodsborg Strandpark, where children can play in the Øresund’s gentle waves all day long. Try the interactive SkodsborgRuten using an app to guide you through the countryside with plenty of exciting facts and stories, and if you’re lucky, you may even see a herd of deer! Children will love the Cykelmyggens Cykellegeplads in nearby Vedbæk for fun on two wheels.
Simply pack your car and head forSkodsborg, regardless of whether you need a little romance, wellness or simply quality time away with your family.
